Abstract (en)

A chiller system includes a plurality of heat pump chillers connected to each other, the plurality of heat pump chillers regulating a temperature of a circulating liquid as a heat medium for temperature regulation by condensation heat or evaporation heat of a refrigerant. When there is at least one active chiller out of the plurality of chillers, an operation command is transmitted, to one of the remaining chillers being stopped, under a condition that the following relation is satisfied: [total required operation capacity] / ([number of currently active chillers] + 1) ‰¥ [partial load capacity], where the [total required operation capacity] represents a total operation capacity required of the at least one active chiller, the [number of currently active chillers] represents the number of the at least one active chiller, and the [partial load capacity] represents a load capacity of a predetermined partial load.
